Champions League: Real Madrid fear UEFA will ban key player for Arsenal clash

Real Madrid are concerned that one of their key players might miss the upcoming Champions League match against Arsenal. UEFA is currently investigating the actions of several Real Madrid stars, including Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Jr., Antonio Rudiger, and Dani Ceballos.

The investigation focuses on their behavior during and after Real Madrid’s dramatic penalty shootout victory against Atletico Madrid on March 12. The biggest concerns involve gestures made by Rudiger and Mbappe.

Rudiger is facing the most serious allegations. The German defender was seen making a throat-slitting gesture, which some believe was directed at Atletico Madrid fans. UEFA may consider this as a threatening action, leading to a possible suspension.

Mbappe is also under scrutiny after a video surfaced showing him making a controversial gesture during celebrations.

Real Madrid are waiting for UEFA’s decision and hope their key players will be available for the crucial match against Arsenal.
